Formaldehyde, one of the most widely produced chemicals in the world, is used in many products, including disinfectants, pressed wood and clothing and other textiles. Exposure to this chemical, which has been linked to adverse health effects for more than 30 years, typically occurs through inhalation and dermal contact. Formaldehyde can be used to enhance wrinkle resistance in some clothing and textiles, especially those made of cotton. The Consumer Product Safety Commission reviewed formaldehyde in clothing in the 1980s and determined that the levels found did not pose a public health concern. At that time, most clothing sold in the U.S. was made here, but the market has changed such that most U.S. clothing is now made in other countries. This book examines this market change which has raised new questions about the levels and dangers of formaldehyde in apparel, textiles and other consumer products.
